Use our cutter for many things. Have used thermo and many other products. Stahls has a bunch. Have one now that goes through printer, then plotter, then heat press full color on any color shirt. Neat stuff.

Yeah.... I am sorry I waited so long to get this going ... HUGE MONEY MAKER!

I am looking into the Printer/Cutter now but they are NOT CHEAP.
Any recommendations?

Who do you buy your stuff from? Stahls and who else?
I get the Thermo Plus from GRIMCO and I am pleased

Thermo plus I get from Grimco also. Prints good. I use a Seiko (now hp9000) to print and a graphtec to cut. System works great. AT the recent show in Orlando it looked like Mimaki was making steps forward with their machine. If you go print/cut make sure you go solvent. I also use Reece Supply quite a bit.

yeah..... I have a few people looking into the print/cut machines for me.
If we continue to have a strong season I will buy that or and embroidery machine to play with over the boring winter months.

Mimaki does have a strong machine. A friend of mine has a few of them and swears by it.
i am on a ROLAND CAMM-1 PRO 30" for now... going to a 60+" soon. The demand is huge around my area.

Also looking for cutter/ printer

Post by Derrick Alan »

You know this is very interesting, I am new to this but for the last few years I have been buying equipment and training tapes and supplies getting prepared to make this leap. My equipment has been based on listening to you old times, I purchased two 4/4 press, exposure unit, dyer, hat press, heat press, two wide format inkjet printers, 27 inch laminator, 80-100 newman frames ect..

Corel & CS2 suite,


Last year went to Indy, my main goal was to purchase an eight head printer, I came expecting to spend 10,000 and the manufactior that I had spoken to on the other website did not even show up at Idny, once I got there I was not impressed - I met guys with bad products or were trying to market there services that they are printing with the equiment we were there trying to purchase!
I am going again this year to as many of these seminars as I can, this time I am going to stay for the classes and hopeful -

I need help finding some driver software. I have an old ANA Express 60 that I would like to use for names and numbers on ball uniforms, etc. I haven't used it in years as the old drivers never worked well and then became incompatible as I up graded my OS. I have Mac OS 10.411 and Illstrator cs2. Leads on other sites have proved fruitless. Does any one know of a solution?
Does any one have unused software for an old machine no longer used? Any help appreciated.
